<HTML>Actually; 'Pelinore' has quite a nice ring to it.</HTML>

<HTML>If a name is the term used most often when people want to speak to you then yagerroffoutofityerbastard is actually quite accurate for many cats - including my old pet one, who was a bugger for clawing my skin when he was sitting on my lap.</HTML>

<HTML>Look, I used to be a cat person. We used to have cats. (All called Moggy - sequentially, of course). Then I got married and I had to become a dog person. Cute pics of pooches available at my website (see Shameless Self-Advert thread). But even a cat person (especially a cat person with a garden) has to shout yagerroffoutofityerbastard occasionally.</HTML>

<HTML>Seeing as this is about cats, this anagram ought to go here:

I'm a real cat nucleii

Hmm, it's all gone a bit Schroedinger...</HTML>

<HTML>In defence of my missus, she was also a cat person in a former life, but gave her cat Polly to her mother when she moved. Then later she acquired dogs, and cat-owning became out of the question. Bob's attitude to cats is "Oh, boy! A pussycat! I'll woof at it and chase it all over the place!" often followed by "WTF just hit me?". He's a happy dog, but not bright.</HTML>

<HTML>i cannot believe that nobody has suggested felix9 yet. Its probably a bugger to say, but a little easier than DH82 (possibly wrong but I dont have my copy of LIAGB with me!!). Now there would be an interesting one to try.</HTML>

<HTML>wait, one problem... the Felix# s were blind followers. Have you ever known a cat that obedient? I think not! (unless you had your cat lobotomized and inserted a doofy dog brain!)</HTML>

<HTML>Hmmm. I think somebody must have done that, actually, because our other dog Mia has clearly got the transplanted cat brain. She behaves <I>exactly</I> like a cat in every respect except tree-climbing ability (legs too short).

Incidentally, did you know there is a place in Gloucestershire, not all that far from Swindon, called Catbrain?</HTML>
